    Default 1/2 bankitnancy takes a weird line

    Stacks:
    UTG Kingcovey ($417.95)

    MP1 TheNewIvey ($214.50)

    CO Hero ($457.25)
    BTN dankness3 ($304.35)
    SB Prairie Hawk ($224.85)
    BB jarapin ($200)

    Pre-Flop: ($3, 8 players) Hero is CO
    Kingcovey raises to $6, phucdumnuts folds, TheNewIvey folds, BankItDrew calls $6, Hero calls $6, dankness3 folds, Prairie Hawk folds, jarapin calls $4

    Flop: ($25, 4 players)
    jarapin checks, Kingcovey checks, BankItDrew checks, Hero bets $10, jarapin folds, Kingcovey folds, BankItDrew calls $10

    Turn: ($45, 2 players)

    villain is bankitdrew
    only history is possibly irrelevant, a year+ ago he called 3b oop AT in co vs bu and c/r ATx

    i bet the turn because i thought it was a good play. also i don't understand why you an linked an irrelevant hand from my weak tight in this manner, pretty unprofessional imo.

    and i called. river is 9x he jams for ~134.

    What's unprofessional about it? It was a compliment.

    this

    but i can see him showing up with like 78d or a spazzed out K for thin value

    Know nothing about Bankitdrew but I doubt he's ever doing this with a random K + plus he's not shoving rivers with his flopped 2 pair ever so it comes down to whether or not you can give him anything but sets when he raises turn. If he can have missed Fd's/gutter type hands it becomes an auto-call.

    I don't think so. I remember looking over the hand right before I posted. Still could be wrong.

    Got no idea why we would think our hand is the best, on the turn, nor the rivva =)

    not everyone at full ring is a huge nit -this changes when you hit 200nl+

    100nl and below folding turn vs almost anyone seems standard. this is clearly a different kind of spot than just facing a turn raise from some random reg.

    think about what drew is repping 2 combos or something?

    I mean we block 99, why the hell would he not bet a set on the flop? Zill can't be expected to blindly fire here when checked to. Then again checking a set on flop seems okay given that it looks like its just 5 solid regs to the flop (altho kingcovey is remarkably terrible hes close enough to fit the category I'm trying to place these guys in).

    THEN AGAIN, zill firing two streets here is pretty f'ing strong and drew should know this so why would he ever bluff?!

    levels yo

    Pre is fine. Check the flop, there's a good chance you have the best hand, you don't have enough equity to continue if raised, you have some OK turns. After that check it down
  20. #20
    how about over betting the flop if you're going to bet?
  21. #21
    Why the fuck would we overbet the flop with no equity against strongish ranges with position
  22. #22
    Why would we bet at all then if we're facing strongish ranges and we have no equity?

    I mean, I see you mentioned red should check the flop and I agree. But if we do bet I don't think 2/5p is ideal.

    I think red took this line and bet sizing because it looks strong, especially on a board like this where if he triple barrels it's very difficult to stay in with something like TPTK.

    If it looks so strong then why are we thinking about calling the turn?

    2/5 pot is pretty hard to balance unless everyone plays back really wide. I'd rather bet big when I bet and have a (bigger?) checking range.

    boooom

    badgers nails it

    (I'm pretty sure your checking range can be smaller here fwiw if you bet bigger though I'm not 100% certain here)

    wtf, how is betting 2/5 pot not standard here with your whole range that bets? I might give up with a hand like this that has no equity but betting seems fine.

    Not much to think about really. When you are checked to last to act on a dry board people tend to have very weak hands, so a small bet is effective as a bluff and optimal for value as well.

    I was leaning to a bigger bet on the flop because i think i dont bet that much air 4ways on the flop, even though it is pretty dry

    Whats the weakest hand u guys would bet?
  32. #32
    Absolutely fold here, I'd check turn and I wouldn't bet flop.
    Check out the new blog!!!

    y stabbing flop w/o at least bdfd is meh, i guess if nonPFRer villians are extremely Fit or fold (high fold vs cbet%) its fine

    turn i wouldnt bet (its mostly a bluff when yo bet) - just try to get to SD

    now definitely fold, ppl arent bluffing here enough (he needs to be turning weaker made hand into a bluff or delayed semibluffing some weird ****)
